In the first half of Saturday's football playoff, the Johns Hopkins pep band played "Johnny B. Goode." And he really was. For 30 minutes, Blue Jays quarterback Jonathan Germano shredded Mount Union's vaunted defense, passing for 217 yards and three touchdowns to give Hopkins a 21-7 lead over the defending national champion.
